Ren'Py - Red Sakura Mansion 2 [v1.9.1] [TinWoodman]

This is a game that should not work and I should not like but I LOVE this game. This is not a deep compelling story with 1000 different choices and paths, its very linear, choices are almost non existent and none of them really matter. I was all set to hate this game, but the more I played it the more it's charming simplicity won me over.

The first thing this game has going for it are drop dead gorgeous characters that are very expressive. Chloe and Naomi are two of the cutest characters ever. Face, Body and personality really separate these two from your average AVN characters. There facial expression really sell the scenes there in. The graphics here are close to some of the best I have seen.

The story is super simplistic and there are a bunch of spelling errors but not enough to bother me. Is it a power fantasy? FUCK YES it is but is it a fun power fantasy set in a fake world.

I suggest playing the short and very simplistic part 1 FIRST or 2's story will have much less of an impact on you. Part 1 IMO is an absolute MUST PLAY before this part. ALSO not to be driven insane with grind on part 1 the MONEY cheat code is mandatory but it is a VERY short preamble to this game and should not be missed.

I found this game super enjoyable and I can't wait for the next update.

I do not know why so many people claim for a plot. When watching a porn movie I do not expect actors to won an oscar
Love this game as it is pure porn and the dialogues are funny (Yeeff, yeeff).
Love the BDSM porn scenes and the ideas ... did not like the game first as I was fan of RSM 1 and did not understand why dev gave it up .. but as TinWoodman promised the game got better and better ... now I cannot wait for the next updates ... your forcing whores to work and from the money you get more whores or punishment devices.
In this game there is a black slave very rare for a porn game black slave white master ...
An asian slave and a blonde bimbo would be fine as the girls are nice but not really stunning.
Game can be recommanded for anyone who wants to play a nice Bdsm-porn game.
Not for dogooders, woke or feminists btw.

If you're in this for the plot.. well lets just say this aint for you.
The game has great renders, a range of kinks. A range of stunning characters and senarios.
Writing an characters are a little off at times and lacks some polish (why its a 4 star) but its a still thoughly enjoyable game.

Amazing girls
Amazingly sexy scenes
Amazing kinks
Amazing renders (although consistency is lacking)

Then why only 2 stars?:

The 'story' seems to be written by a 15 year old misogynist who has no clue about BDSM whatsoever .

The MC is just a pathetic piece of shit, he is no dom, he's just a rapist.

A shame really because with proper writing this could be a winner.

This is sooo much better then the first game, its lacking a bit with story part there is one but its slow progress and its barely even part of the game, same for LIs there arent really much story with them.

Main goal is to enslave girls, break them to become your slaves and thats it, i would like to have seen some more story aspects to the game to make it a bit more fun since it does become alot of the same over and over.
I know that the game is about being very dom but i wouldent mind if you could pick a girl to be nice to as well since it gets a bit boring constantly calling everyone a whore or a slut and with no real story to the LIs and no romance you dont really build any feelings for any of them.

Its fun with all the sex toys and BDSM and so on but it is just alot of the same, add girl call her whore, spank, fuck and repeat so adding 10 more girls would become a bit boring in the long run, thats why a story or romance would be nice to mix it up a bit.

There are a few things that i am not the biggest fan of and thats the girl you sell photo/vids to, after seeing her at the her birthsday party i wouldent want to touch her ever again after seeing her get gang banged by multiple dudes, i dont share my whores which is also why i hated finding one of your old whores in service to another dude and shes been hes slave for 3 years, so i dident really want her back at all but you cant avoid that.

Story 2/5
There really isent much story in this, its closer to being a pure porn game then a story game, i do wish it would focus a bit more on the story aspect.

Animations 3/5
They are decent but very very short so they could be better, but if plan is to add alot of girls i can see why they are like this since it would be alot of work to make good animations for all of them so it is what it is, and still good enough to enjoy.

Girls 4/5
Not much to say they look good.

Music 0/5
Yeah its still silent which is to bad, some good music would go a long way to make it more fun to play.

Sandbox 4/5
Its a pretty easy sandbox, not much of a grind, its mostly just there to click around on the map to visit locations and shops.

I was thinking about giving this 4 stars but you got to compare it to other games so cant just trow out 4 or 5 stars to all games like its nothing then it wouldent be a real review.
And with the lack of story and only average animations and 0 sound its just not there yet, it could be at some point if things changes for the better and i will revisit this when it has more content.

Yes, like the first opus, it is a great game. I enjoy playing it as much and I hope the future will bring much more content (that so far is something we can play for like 30m/1h), but seing the dev having finished the previous one perfectly, I'm sure the content will continue to come, and for that, I thank you.

What else to say ? The art is great (one of the best arts around here), the storyline is pretty good (would not say perfect, but it stills deserves a 5 star review). Well, continue like that, it's a pleasure to play this game.

The sequel to the original RSM feel strangely less ambitious, which is an odd thing in terms of game development. The version reviewd (1.4.2) still has little content.
In any case, I confess I do like it very much... I'm a sucker for BDSM content and this one has it for sure.
The renders are still great, keeping the style of RSM (that you should play first, if you haven't already), and the animations, although not top-notch, are still very good.
It is not the lack of content that makes me give this 4 instead of 5 stars, but the lack of sound (no music, no sounds, no effects, no speech...); in an era of royaltie-free music, sound libraries and easy and free text-to-speech with great quality, it shouldn't be hard (or expensive) to add sound, speech and music to games and VNs...
Also, there is no gallery for revisiting scenes and, finally, the English is very bad -- not as much the spelling, but the way phrases are put together.
Anyway, we are here for the FAPs, not the talks, so, I can forgive that, I guess.
I will update the rating in the future, if the game continues to evolve.

it's not a step back in compare to first game, its f**king leap of fate back. Renders - bad (and no animations), gameplay - bad (just a grind), story (after all devs statements about normal character development) - bad, its now a lame photoshoot simulator (we've already seen it 10000 times) with even worth character development than SM1. Protagonist become absolutely spineless, it's a pain to see him like this. I can't hide my disappointment, i can't believe it's the same dev.

Incredibly good renders! Not only technically, but also artistically. A bit grindy and repetitive, with pinches of humor here and there. I hope dev makes it a bit more interesting and keeps up the visual quality!

Best of luck to developer for this part 2! Renders are good, personally I am a fan of style and themes. Also nice is how the girls are not all the usual copy & paste. Hope this gets continued with good backing
